Give the equation. H2 /Ni, Ans. Primary amine: RCN RCH2NH2. 2. How is nitrobenzene converted into aniline. Give the equation. Ans. By reduction using Sn/ HCl 3. What are A and B? Ans. A is RCH2NH2, B is RNH2 4. Give the equation which will be an example for Hofmann bromamide reaction. Ans. CH3CONH2 + Br2 + 4NaOH CH3NH2 + 2NaBr + Na2CO3 + 2H2O Acetamide methanamine 5. Gabriel phthalimide synthesis is used to prepare which class of organic compound? Aniline cannot be prepared by this method. Give reason. Ans. 1° aliphatic amine Aryl halides are not reactive towards nucleophilic substitution reaction. 6. Name the reaction by which a 1° amine is prepared from an amide having one carbon atom more than 1° amine. Give the general equation. Ans. Hofmann bromamide degradation reaction RCONH2 + Br2 + 4KOH 2NH2 + 2KBr + K2CO3 + 2H2O 7. Between CH3CH2CH2NH2 and (CH3)3N, which has higher boiling point and why? Ans. CH3CH2CH2NH2 has higher boiling point. CH3CH2CH2NH2 has more H atoms on N to form intermolecular hydrogen bonding. 8. Give reason: i) Amines have lower boiling point than alcohol of same molar mass. ii) Amines are insoluble in water. Ans. i) Nitrogen in amines is less electronegative than oxygen in alcohol. Hence amines do not form H-bonds among them. ii) Amines do not form H bonds with water. 9. Amines are both Bronsted base and Lewis base. How? Ans. Amines can accept H+, hence Bronsted bases. Amines can donate a pair of electrons hence Lewis bases. 1 10. Give reason: aniline is a weaker base than ammonia but methanamine is a stronger base than ammonia. Ans. Aniline is weaker base because the pair of electron on nitrogen gets delocalized towards benzene ring. Methanamine is stronger base, because CH3 group is electron releasing group and makes pair of electrons on nitrogen more available for protonation. 11. Arrange 1°, 2°, 3°methylamines in decreasing order of their base strength i) in gaseous phase ii) in aqueous medium. Ans. i) (CH3)3N > (CH3)2NH > CH3NH2 ii) (CH3)2NH > CH3NH2 > (CH3)3N 12.

What is benzene sulphonyl chloride also known as? An amine with benzene sulphonyl chloride forms a compound insoluble in an alkali. Identify the class of the amine. Ans. Hinsberg’s reagent. 2° amine. 22. How does Hinsberg’s reagent help to distinguish 1° amine and a 2° amine? Explain. Ans. The given amine is treated with Hinsberg’s reagent. If the product formed is soluble in an alkali, the amine is 1°. If the product formed is insoluble in an alkali, the amine is 2°. 23. Complete the following equations: Ans. 24. What is the significance of acetylation of aniline before nitrating it? Ans. When aniline is treated with concentrated HNO3, much of the aniline gets oxidized, aniline gets protonated and the major product is meta-nitroaniline. Hence to avoid all this aniline is acetylated. Acetylated aniline, avoids oxidation of aniline and controlled nitration yields p-nitro aniline as the major product. 25. Give reasons: i) aniline does not undergo Friedel-Crafts reaction. ii) aniline with concentrated HNO3 forms meta nitro compound in significant amounts. Ans. i) Aniline reacts with AlCl3 to form a salt, which makes nitrogen of aniline to get a positive charge, which becomes a strongly deactivating group. ii) Aniline with conc. HNO3 forms anilinium ion which is meta directing. 26. What is diazotization? Give the general formula of a diazonium salt. Ans. Conversion of 1° aromatic amine into diazonium salt is diazotization.

Analyses of 40 years have shown the organic content of these meteorites to be materials as diverse as kerogen-like macromolecules and simpler soluble compounds such as amino acids and polyols. Many meteoritic molecules have identical counterpart in the biosphere and, in a primitive group of meteorites, represent the majority of their carbon. Most of the compounds in meteorites have isotopic compositions that date their formation to presolar environments and reveal a long and active cosmochemical evolution of the biogenic elements. Whether this evolution resumed on the Earth to foster biogenesis after exogenous deliveryof meteoritic and cometary materials is not known, yet, the selective abundance of biomolecule precur- sors evident in some cosmic environments and the unique L-asymmetry of some meteoritic amino acids are suggestive of their possible contribution to terrestrial molecular evolution.

  • INVESTIGATION of POLYCYCLIC AROMATIC HYDROCARBONS (Pahs) on DRY FLUE GAS DESULFURIZATION (FGD) BY-PRODUCTS
    INVESTIGATION OF POLYCYCLIC AROMATIC HYDROCARBONS (PAHs) ON DRY FLUE GAS DESULFURIZATION (FGD) BY-PRODUCTS DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Ping Sun, M.S. ***** The Ohio State University 2004 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Linda Weavers, Adviser Professor Harold Walker Professor Patrick Hatcher Adviser Professor Yu-Ping Chin Civil Engineering Graduate Program ABSTRACT The primary goal of this research was to examine polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) on dry FGD by-products to determine environmentally safe reuse options of this material. Due to the lack of information on the analytical procedures for measuring PAHs on FGD by-products, our initial work focused on analytical method development. Comparison of the traditional Soxhlet extraction, automatic Soxhlet extraction, and ultrasonic extraction was conducted to optimize the extraction of PAHs from lime spray dryer (LSD) ash (a common dry FGD by-product). Due to the short extraction time, ultrasonic extraction was further optimized by testing different organic solvents. Ultrasonic extraction with toluene as the solvent turned out to be a fast and efficient method to extract PAHs from LSD ash. The possible reactions of PAHs under standard ultrasonic extraction conditions were then studied to address concern over the possible degradation of PAHs by ultrasound. By sonicating model PAHs including naphthalene, phenanthrene and pyrene in organic solutions, extraction parameters including solvent type, solute concentration, and sonication time on reactions of PAHs were examined. A hexane: acetone (1:1 V/V) ii mixture resulted in less PAH degradation than a dichloromethane (DCM): acetone (1:1 V/V) mixture.

  • 2-Properties of Organic Compnds
    Experiment 2 – Properties of Organic Compounds Organic compounds are compounds based on carbon. They contain carbon and hydrogen, and can also contain other nonmetal elements such as oxygen, nitrogen, or halogen atoms. The properties of organic compounds are very different from the properties of inorganic compounds that you have been using up to this point. In this lab, you will explore some of the differences in the properties of organic vs. ionic substances. Most organic compounds are nonpolar and thus do not mix with polar molecules like water. Therefore organic substances, in general, are insoluble in water. However, they are soluble in nonpolar solvents. Most ionic substances, on the other hand, are soluble in water and insoluble in nonpolar solvents. Organic compounds can be gases, liquids, or solids at room temperature. Ionic compounds are all solids at room temperature with very high melting points. Organic compounds have relatively low melting points and boiling points. The reason for these differences lies in the type of attractive forces holding the particles next to each other in each case. Ionic compounds consist of a vast array of alternating positive and negatively charged ions. Ionic substances are held together by very strong electrostatic forces and there are no individual molecules present. In order to melt an ionic compound, the ions must be able to move around each other, so a huge amount of energy is needed to break these strong electrostatic forces and thus ionic compounds have very high melting points. Organic compounds, on the other hand, consist of individual molecules held together by covalent bonds.

  • Chapter 3: the Chemical Basis for Life Lesson 2: Organic Compounds
    Chapter 3: The Chemical Basis for Life Lesson 2: Organic Compounds We have already learned that water is the primary substance for life on Earth, but we will now explore the element found in most of the molecules from which living organisms are made. That element is carbon and it is found in all organic compounds. The picture above is a graphic depiction of the organic compounds: carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids. These are all large complex molecules that have contributed to the great diversity of life on Earth. Lesson Objectives • Define and explain elements and compounds; the relationships from atom to molecule to macromolecule. • Explain why carbon is essential to life on Earth and uniquely suited to form biological macromolecules. • Describe and compare the structure and function of the four major types of organic compounds. Vocabulary • atom biochemical conversion biological macromolecule carbohydrate DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) isomers lipids macromolecules molecule monomer nucleic acid organic molecule polymer protein 63 INTRODUCTION If you look at your hand, what do you see? Of course, you see skin, which consists of cells. But what are skin cells made of? Like all living cells, they are made of matter. In fact, all things are made of matter. Matter is anything that takes up space and has mass. Matter, in turn, is made up of chemical substances. In this lesson you will learn about the chemical substances that make up living things. CHEMICAL SUBSTANCES A chemical substance is matter that has a definite composition. It also has the same composition throughout. A chemical substance may be either an element or a compound.
